Speaker 1: This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast
Speaker 1: edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to
Speaker 1: give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download, and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. The greatest headline
Speaker 1: I've ever seen on CNN just came up, starts their
Speaker 1: six o'clock hour back East headline, Canada is bending the
Speaker 1: knee just like Mexico. Right that's on CNN. Think about
Speaker 1: the moment we're living through right now, and how great
Speaker 1: it is for the entire world, and how great it
Speaker 1: is obviously for all of us as Americans. We have
Speaker 1: had the greatest country in the history of the world.
Speaker 1: Not perfect, right, There's never been a perfect human endeavor,
Speaker 1: but the greatest nation on earth ever. The only reason
Speaker 1: the world is free right now and not under the
Speaker 1: total control of evil is the United States of America.
Speaker 1: Others have helped and contributed and deserve great credit for that,
Speaker 1: but without the United States of America, the higher world
Speaker 1: is ruled by evil right now, Hitler and his successors,
Speaker 1: Saddam and his successors, et cetera. The whole world is
Speaker 1: in darkness. If not for the United States. So the
Speaker 1: most generous people in the history of the world live here,
Speaker 1: and yet we've allowed ourselves to become a punching bag,
Speaker 1: to get kicked around, to be constantly apologizing, and then
Speaker 1: administration after administration saying no, we're not great, We're not
Speaker 1: better than anybody else. Barack Obama made it his whole centerpiece,
Speaker 1: and now every lefty to follow that's their core belief.
Speaker 1: We are no better than anybody else.
Speaker 2: No world order that elevates one nation or group of
Speaker 2: people over another will.
Speaker 1: Succeed, really better than anybody among nations will hold. And they,
Speaker 1: the Democrats, have become even more radical since them, well,
Speaker 1: no blank that we are better. We're better than an
Speaker 1: awful lot of people. We're better in an awful lot
Speaker 1: of nations. We're not perfect, but the United States of
Speaker 1: America is better than most nations on Earth. The United
Speaker 1: States of America is the reason the world is free,
Speaker 1: or at least the parts of it that are free
Speaker 1: are free. So the fact that we let ourselves get
Speaker 1: killed off by the tens and hundreds of thousands from
Speaker 1: evil regimes that conduct these chemical attacks in our country
Speaker 1: via open borders, and they do it through fentanyl. That
Speaker 1: that is suicidal. That's a national strategy only doctor Kavorkian
Speaker 1: could support. So thank god literally for Donald Trump stepping
Speaker 1: up and saying, no, we're the United States of America.
Speaker 1: We're just not going to flex our muscle. We're going
Speaker 1: to use our muscle not for wrong, but for right. See,
Speaker 1: that's the key distinction. If you use your power to
Speaker 1: do wrong, well, that's an abuse. If you fail to
Speaker 1: use your power to do right and do stop wrong,
Speaker 1: that's surrender. What's been going on year after year after
Speaker 1: year these Democrats right here in Colorado, rather that's Johnston,
Speaker 1: Hick and Looper Bennett, the whole crew of them, whether
Speaker 1: it's nationally, Obama, Biden, the whole crew of them. They
Speaker 1: have been surrendering. They have made a conscious decision not
Speaker 1: to use our power to protect our own citizens. That
Speaker 1: they've been making a conscious effort to surrender and to
Speaker 1: not use the power to do good, to not use
Speaker 1: the power to stop bad. Donald Trump is saying enough
Speaker 1: of that. We're the greatest nation in history. We're going
Speaker 1: to use our power to do good things and stop
Speaker 1: bad things. It's called peace through strength, and it works
Speaker 1: on multiple levels. And we're watching it work right now
Speaker 1: with the terriffs. I'm sure you've seen the news of
Speaker 1: the day at this point that Trump imposes the tariffs
Speaker 1: and what happens. I've read to you the CNN ondline
Speaker 1: that started the show. Canada bends the knee, just like Mexico.
Speaker 1: And so now both of those governments have agreed to
Speaker 1: all of this very specific concrete action, including massive troops, etc.
Speaker 1: At the border to stop the flow of fentanyl, to
Speaker 1: stop the flow of illegal immigration. Promise is made, Promises keptain.
Speaker 1: My hope is that the benefit of this goes even
Speaker 1: beyond saving all of these precious, innocent human lives that
Speaker 1: otherwise would have been lost to fentanyl, and some still
Speaker 1: will be because under the Left there's already so much
Speaker 1: fentanyl circulating in this country because the Left intentionally left
Speaker 1: the borders open. But lives will be saved because of this,
Speaker 1: and each of those lives is precious. And my hope
Speaker 1: is that over time this lives beyond these four years
Speaker 1: of Trump, that this is now first of all, the
Speaker 1: new GOP and the way the GOP is going to
Speaker 1: act and orient itself, and it gets to some great
Speaker 1: news locally. I'll get to in a second, but also
Speaker 1: that this now, this now becomes the new norm. This
Speaker 1: now becomes what America expects. And that's the big change
Speaker 1: since election day, right and certainly since inauguration Day. It's
Speaker 1: Americans saying, hey, wait a second, we don't have to
Speaker 1: live this way. Have you ever had that happen in
Speaker 1: your own life where you just you are convinced that
Speaker 1: something was always going to be with you. It could
Speaker 1: be a someone, it could be a something, it could
Speaker 1: be some problem in your life, and then all of
Speaker 1: a sudden something happened and you realize, I don't have
Speaker 1: to live that way anymore. No, it can be better,
Speaker 1: it can be different. That's what America has tasted since
Speaker 1: the election of Donald Trump and getting a big gulp
Speaker 1: since election days, since he was inaugurated. So America can
Speaker 1: see right now, no, we don't have to live that
Speaker 1: way anymore. We can be safer, we can use our
Speaker 1: power to stop bad things. Yeah, and once America's had
Speaker 1: a taste to that, America's not going back unless the
Speaker 1: GOP screws it up royally. And I understand the GOP
Speaker 1: could do that, but if people are sitting around thinking,
Speaker 1: oh no, no, no, no, it really is not going
Speaker 1: to continue on this tremendous arc because the Democrats are
Speaker 1: going to get their act together and they're going to
Speaker 1: see what I just said, that America is not going
Speaker 1: back and the Democrats are going to change. Anybody who
Speaker 1: think that's the case, you got to hear this sound.
Speaker 1: This is the outgoing chair of the DNC, just on
Speaker 1: Saturday explaining to that the Democratic delegates who are electing
Speaker 1: the new chair what the rules are. And as you
Speaker 1: listen to this, you'll know, No, the Democrats they're not
Speaker 1: coming back. They're not coming back anytime soon. We're going
Speaker 1: to export. We're finding out ways to expert. I guess
Speaker 1: because of our gender balance provisions. On this next ballot,
Speaker 1: you will be able to vote for two candidates of
Speaker 1: any gender.
Speaker 2: On the next ballot.
Speaker 1: Listen to that. In the crowd, this hard left Democrat
Speaker 1: crowd starts clapping, Oh, now we can vote for who
Speaker 1: we want to. You will be allowed to vote for
Speaker 1: two candidates of any gender. So think about it under
Speaker 1: their rules that they're not allowed to vote for who
Speaker 1: they want to, that they have got to vote for
Speaker 1: one candidate of one gender, one candidate of another. The
Speaker 1: only good news in all of that is, at least
Speaker 1: for this vote, the Democratic Party is acknowledging the undeniable
Speaker 1: medical biological reality there are only two genders. Think about that.
Speaker 1: But then when there's this moment of sanity that some
Speaker 1: of the crowd are now cheering for, I can vote
Speaker 1: for who I want to. I'm not being told I
Speaker 1: have to vote for somebody because of their gender. Then
Speaker 1: he corrects himself or somebody corrects him and says, oh, no,
Speaker 1: that's actually not true.
Speaker 3: Okay, so on this next ballot you will be able
Speaker 3: to vote for two candidates of any gender.
Speaker 1: On the next.
Speaker 4: Ballot, have.
Speaker 5: Perceive I'm going to turn to.
Speaker 3: Helen to clarify this last one.
Speaker 1: So now Helen comes out and says, oh, no, no,
Speaker 1: that's not the case. You cannot vote for any candidate
Speaker 1: you want to. You've still got to vote for at
Speaker 1: least one of each gender. Think about that. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: they're not coming back. But if there was any doubt
Speaker 1: about that, then you have the DNC vice chair get
Speaker 1: up and say, pay attention to me, not because of
Speaker 1: what I have to say, but because of the color
Speaker 1: of my skin. The opposite of doctor King. Hey, I
Speaker 1: am speaking and I would love your attention. There is
Speaker 1: a black woman at this podium, and I deserve your attention. Wow. Seeah,
Speaker 1: they are not coming back anytime soon. And we haven't
Speaker 1: even gotten to the hog wild stuff. Yeah that David
Speaker 1: hog Yeah, the guy wants to take away everybody's guns.
Speaker 1: Who is now their vice chair? So yeah, they're not
Speaker 1: coming back now. Colorado. Hey, you know, you still get
Speaker 1: the Democrats all over the country who will lie about
Speaker 1: who they really are and what their agenda really is.
Speaker 1: And we got some of those in Colorado and Hicking,
Speaker 1: Looper and Bennett and Polis and they've been able to
Speaker 1: get away with it for a while. Yeah, Polus's case
Speaker 1: because of the big money and the other case protective media.
Speaker 1: But this country, now, this country has seen what life
Speaker 1: can be like, life can be like that we can
Speaker 1: return to sanity. The scales have fallen off of eyes.
Speaker 1: They're starting to see these lefties, even the milk toast
Speaker 1: ones who play this moderate con like Bennett and Hick
Speaker 1: and Looper, that they're starting to see these people for
Speaker 1: who they really are. And when we come back, you know,
Speaker 1: we'll celebrate Trump in America's big victories today. But I
Speaker 1: want to give you some polling from the left that
Speaker 1: confirms what I've been telling you on air. The worm's turning.
Speaker 1: Even here in Colorado. There is hope. You're on the
Speaker 1: Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 5: And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 3: I had a great talk with Mexico and.
Speaker 1: We had President Jean Baum.
Speaker 3: There's a woman. I like her very much and we've
Speaker 3: had good relationships. But we have to stop venton off
Speaker 3: from coming in, whether I like somebody or not, and
Speaker 3: we have to stop the illegal aliens from coming in.
Speaker 3: I think we've lost too one hundred thousand people on
Speaker 3: average a year for many years. Much higher than one
Speaker 3: hundred thousand, could be even closer to three hundred thousand.
Speaker 3: And they've agreed to put it in ten thousand sold
Speaker 3: is permanently like forever, ten thousand soldiers at their side
Speaker 3: of the border and stop fentanyl and illegal aliens from
Speaker 3: coming into our country.
Speaker 1: They have a big incentive to do. Yeah. And then
Speaker 1: the CNN headline we started the show with Canada like
Speaker 1: Mexico bends the knee, right, So Canada later in the
Speaker 1: day agreed to do the same thing and listen as
Speaker 1: the United States of America. We have every right to
Speaker 1: demand that demand that no more chemical weapons attacks on
Speaker 1: our country out of Mexico or Canada. And that's what
Speaker 1: fentanyl is. Listen to those numbers, right, Yeah, I'm sure
Speaker 1: you've had some contact with, if not know intimately somebody
Speaker 1: who's died offen a young person from fetanyl. What same nation,
Speaker 1: let alone, the strongest nation in the history of the world,
Speaker 1: would stand here and put up with that for a day,
Speaker 1: for a day. But the left not only puts up
Speaker 1: with it, they expanded no, no more, no more. That's
Speaker 1: why I think this change is likely permanent here. But
Speaker 1: I want to get to something that ties into that,
Speaker 1: which is, Okay, what would it take for that to
Speaker 1: really affect Colorado? Because we've seen it affect so many
Speaker 1: other places in America in the last election. But Colorado,
Speaker 1: we know is deep deep blues, so and much of
Speaker 1: the media deeply, deeply committed to the Democratic Party. So
Speaker 1: what does it take to break that stranglehold in Colorado? Well,
Speaker 1: I think it's happening right now. Here's a headline from
Speaker 1: the Denver Post in a warning for Colorado Democrats. A
Speaker 1: new poll shows their popularity slipping. Now, what that from
Speaker 1: the Denver Post. But you know what, it's even better
Speaker 1: than that for Republicans, and I'll get to that in
Speaker 1: a second first paragraph. A majority of Colorado voters have
Speaker 1: a negative view about the Democratic and Republican parties, according
Speaker 1: to a recent poll that also found they increasingly identify
Speaker 1: Republicans with the working class and solutions to economic problems. Now,
Speaker 1: what have we been talking about here forever? We've been
Speaker 1: talking about for the GOP to win and for the
Speaker 1: GOP to matter, the GOP has to be the party
Speaker 1: of the working class. And now in deep blue Colorado,
Speaker 1: voters are seeing Republicans as the party of the working
Speaker 1: class and the party with solutions to economic problems. That's
Speaker 1: right where you need to be.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: It doesn't guarantee victory in a state like Colorado, but
Speaker 1: the door is open, the piece goes on to say,
Speaker 1: and I'll skim around a little bit. The poll comes
Speaker 1: as the National Democratic Party searches for a path forward
Speaker 1: in the wake of the trouncing, my word, etc. The
Speaker 1: strength of Republicans identification with working class issues is a
Speaker 1: warning shot for a party that's lost ground across the country.
Speaker 1: And then it starts, you know, quoting some political scientists
Speaker 1: and Democratic Party people, etc. The poll conducted by Keating
Speaker 1: Research found that forty five percent of respondents had a
Speaker 1: favorable view of the Democratic Party against fifty one percent
Speaker 1: who viewed the party negatively. Just thirty seven percent had
Speaker 1: a favorable view of the Republican Party versus fifty six
Speaker 1: who viewed it unfavorably. Listen, if you're talking about an
Speaker 1: eight point spread, and I'm not seeing that translates directly,
Speaker 1: but if you're talking about an eight point spread now
Speaker 1: in Colorado, that is real improvement over where it's been.
Speaker 1: But the bigger thing is the weakening of support for Democrats.
Speaker 1: Because you have to start right. You have to start
Speaker 1: with what's true, and we know what's true that the
Speaker 1: people who pay a lot of attention to this I
Speaker 1: assume you do because you're listening to a show like this,
Speaker 1: that the simple truth is a Colorado Democratic Party is
Speaker 1: controlled by far far left, secular radicals. We know that's true,
Speaker 1: and it's allowed so much unnecessary, horrible stuff to happen
Speaker 1: in Colorado. The point is this that for the GOP
Speaker 1: to win, starting point, not the end, has to be
Speaker 1: eyes getting open to what the Democratic Party in Colorado
Speaker 1: really is. And this pole confirms and by the way,
Speaker 1: Keating research is not from the right, that is not
Speaker 1: a conservative polster. This poll confirms that Colorado's are starting
Speaker 1: to see who the Democratic Party really is and they're
Speaker 1: starting to cut through the lie and the con right.
Speaker 1: So and that's the reason why this radical party in
Speaker 1: Colorado has as its statewide officeholders these boring old white guys,
Speaker 1: you know, Hick and Looper Bennett Polis who acts like
Speaker 1: the boring old white guy I mean publicly, you know,
Speaker 1: feeding this phony moderate image. And so people are starting
Speaker 1: to see, wait a second, that's a facade. That's not
Speaker 1: who that party really is. That's key to the GOP.
Speaker 1: Hav any chance that doesn't guarantee the GOP any success.
Speaker 1: For that to happen, the GOP's got to have some
Speaker 1: great candidate, run really good campaigns, have some luck, have
Speaker 1: some things go right, and then Ryan, It's what I've
Speaker 1: always been saying, Once the GOP has that one big
Speaker 1: breakthrough statewide winner, okay, then things start to turn quickly
Speaker 1: because once that happens, you know it's possible, it's going
Speaker 1: to be easier to get the big money in here.
Speaker 1: For other races, and now you've got a face of
Speaker 1: the party who the people of Colorado, at least in
Speaker 1: that one race, have elected, and then the whole thing
Speaker 1: can start to change, just like the whole history of
Speaker 1: the GOP. If Jane Norton had won that primary, everybody recognizes,
Speaker 1: including Michael Bennett. I've had multiple people close to Bennett
Speaker 1: tell me they thought he would have lost by eight
Speaker 1: points to Jane Norton. I think it would have been ten.
Speaker 1: But the point being that, hey, Ken Peter Farren square
Speaker 1: in the primary, no gripe about that. He won a
Speaker 1: close race. But if she had won that primary and
Speaker 1: been our senator, I think the whole rest of the
Speaker 1: history changes for Colorado because then you've got that clearly
Speaker 1: recognized statewide leader. You know who's who's got that level
Speaker 1: of success, has that big office. Things change, and that's
Speaker 1: what that's what's going to happen in Colorado here. Eventually,
Speaker 1: the question is this cycle the next cycle five cycles later?
Speaker 1: THEMS aren't going to change, right, thems aren't going to change.
Speaker 1: They are who they are. So it's up to the
Speaker 1: GOP now to do those other things that have to
Speaker 1: be done. And part of it is a united GOP
Speaker 1: because none of us have to be you know, math
Speaker 1: majors to get that. For a GOP candidate to have
Speaker 1: a chance in Colorado, the GOP has to be united.
Speaker 1: And is that even possible? Love your take on that?
Speaker 1: Eight five to five for zero five eight two five
Speaker 1: five text d An five seven seven three nine Ryan,
Speaker 1: do you think that's possible in Colorado?
Speaker 2: I wonder how much of the national scene is going
Speaker 2: to impact what happens in Colorado. And well, they're speaking
Speaker 2: with George Brockler here coming up in just a little bit,
Speaker 2: that we witness these ice rates working deporting bad people
Speaker 2: from Denver, Aurora, etc.
Speaker 1: Witness the tariff's working, watching.
Speaker 2: Everything like that work Dan, watching Gabe Evans be a
Speaker 2: tremendous representative of the eighth Congressional District, watching Jeff Crank
Speaker 2: and Jeff Hurd succeed in their freshman terms as members
Speaker 2: of Congress, watching Lauren Bobert continue to be a big
Speaker 2: part of the Republican Party in Colorado. It's not going
Speaker 2: to happen overnight, but I think a sequence in series
Speaker 2: of victories in the Trump administration over the next two
Speaker 2: years could go a long way.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but for Colorado is going to take a great
Speaker 1: Colorado candidate winning a big race for that worm to
Speaker 1: really turn. But what I'm saying, Ryan, what I'm.
Speaker 2: Saying is that they've got to we have to break
Speaker 2: through with a win here, and that's really hard to
Speaker 2: do when we're not in power in any way.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is this poll confirms what we've
Speaker 1: been talking about on this show. The door is open
Speaker 1: now because scales are falling off eyes and people are
Speaker 1: seeing who the Democrats really are. Listen, you could not
Speaker 1: get a poll in Colorado, and this is the significant
Speaker 1: finding showing that that voters are identify find Republicans as
Speaker 1: the party of the working class. That only happens in
Speaker 1: Colorado because you know, historically Trump hasn't done great here,
Speaker 1: although they came within five points and sixteen. But the
Speaker 1: point is Trump has done a tremendous service to all
Speaker 1: of Colorado and everybody who wants to see the radical
Speaker 1: left the throned. Because clearly, the only reason you have
Speaker 1: voters in Colorado now saying Republicans are the party of
Speaker 1: the working class is because Trump exposed the Democrats. He
Speaker 1: exposed them in this campaign and people can see, as
Speaker 1: we've talked about even since he was elected, the Trump effects.
Speaker 1: So the door's open now in Colorado. Well that's George
Speaker 1: Brockler about that a little bit. George is going to
Speaker 1: join us at four thirty six, we're going to talk
Speaker 1: to you legal immigration here in Colorado. This poll also
Speaker 1: showing that it's a big issue here as it should be,
Speaker 1: and I think it's becoming a bigger issue as people say, wait,
Speaker 1: there is hope. We don't have to live with people
Speaker 1: here illegally committing other crimes here on the day. And Captain.
Speaker 5: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1: It doesn't look to me like Trump is getting tired
Speaker 1: of winning. But we have never seen this much winning
Speaker 1: so fast from any president. Let's go to the VIP
Speaker 1: line talk to a guy quite familiar with the habit
Speaker 1: of winning. That would be George Brockler, who just won
Speaker 1: out in the New twenty third. He is the first
Speaker 1: DA of the twenty third. So George is the statue
Speaker 1: up yet And I know you wouldn't use taxpayer dollars,
Speaker 1: but maybe some private donations. I mean, think about it.
Speaker 1: You are the very first DA two hundred years from now,
Speaker 1: when the great people of Douglas County are celebrating things
Speaker 1: at the courthouse, numero uno, George Brockler, that's all they're
Speaker 1: going to talk about. I thought George might have been speechless.
Speaker 1: He's probably never had an introduction like that. I think
Speaker 1: it's a cell phoney. I think you're introduction jumbled the signal. Oh,
Speaker 1: that could do it too, that could do it too.
Speaker 1: When we, you know, back to the future, George, how
Speaker 1: you doing, I'm living the dream?
Speaker 4: How are you guys?
Speaker 1: Well, thank you, my friend. When do I get that
Speaker 1: royalty check?
Speaker 4: But you know, and we've been having this debate for
Speaker 4: over twenty years, I think at this point, and I
Speaker 4: don't think I have the ability to claim credit for
Speaker 4: it entirely, but I can't pay I use it every day.
Speaker 4: I use it every single day.
Speaker 1: Where'd you get it? You got it from me?
Speaker 4: I can't remember where it was. I want to say
Speaker 4: it predated you, but I.
Speaker 1: Know I have given you credit relentlessly, year after year
Speaker 1: after year for all those great jokes you gave me
Speaker 1: for the big SmackDown at Invesco. But I take full
Speaker 1: credit for this one. But George, Georg, you just published
Speaker 1: another piece. You're like another Alexander Hamilton with this prolific writing,
Speaker 1: this one in the Denver Gazette calling out Polus on
Speaker 1: his sanctuary city. I think flip flop would be the
Speaker 1: light term. So lay it honors for those who haven't
Speaker 1: seen it yet. Yeah, tell folks all about it.
Speaker 4: I heard the governor denounce the suggestion that Colorado was
Speaker 4: a sanctuary state, not just in description, but in any way,
Speaker 4: shape or form, and then he counted the cooperation between
Speaker 4: Nice and I thought, and I think I mentioned this
Speaker 4: to Ryan, was this Ai You know what I mean?
Speaker 4: Was this like bizarro world? Because that is not at
Speaker 4: all what I recalled taking place since he took office
Speaker 4: in January of twenty nineteen. So inspired by John Fabricatory
Speaker 4: and Jimmy Sangenberger and others, I'd have said, you know
Speaker 4: what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna dip in and take
Speaker 4: a look at all the bills that got signed since then,
Speaker 4: and they're signed by him. I don't recall a single
Speaker 4: veto that he has put in place on any pro
Speaker 4: legal immigrant bill. And at the end of the day,
Speaker 4: the question that you have to ask yourself, if you
Speaker 4: read through the calm at the end is what single
Speaker 4: individual in Colorado is more responsible for us becoming a
Speaker 4: stand or Ben Jon Polish.
Speaker 1: He is the founding father of the sanctuary state. I mean,
Speaker 1: because I like you, George, I went back and I
Speaker 1: actually pulled eleven twenty four. Is his signature really on it?
Speaker 1: And it's not only on it, it's like this big flourish.
Speaker 1: Everybody else is a normal sized signature, and his takes
Speaker 1: up half the page. I mean, he was so proud
Speaker 1: of that, And to me, eleven twenty four was the
Speaker 1: probably the worst and the most dangerous of everything he did.
Speaker 1: I can't even imagine how many people have been raped
Speaker 1: or killed because of it. But give people your take
Speaker 1: if you would on eleven twenty four.
Speaker 4: Well, I one, I think there's a little bit of
Speaker 4: a mystique that has flown out of the gold Dome
Speaker 4: and intentionally so that this thing is an absolute barrier
Speaker 4: between anything that can take place between law enforcement and ICE.
Speaker 4: And we just know that that's not true, and that
Speaker 4: you know, whether it's a Steve Reims or Darren Weakley
Speaker 4: or any other share out there, they can communicate and
Speaker 4: coordinate with ICE and they do the good ones certainly do.
Speaker 4: The barriers that it starts to create, though, are the
Speaker 4: flow of information, and it starts with eleven twenty four.
Speaker 4: But if you look at the rest of the bills
Speaker 4: that happened about that time and since then, everything has
Speaker 4: been this methodical approach to create more and more sanctuary
Speaker 4: spaces and to cut ICE off from information. Probation we
Speaker 4: have a law that prohibits probation from sharing information with ICE.
Speaker 4: You can't get to probation until you've been convicted. So
Speaker 4: we're talking about illegal immigrants convicted of crimes and probation
Speaker 4: cannot tell anything to ICE about it. That is part
Speaker 4: of sanctuary state.
Speaker 1: Yep. And that is such a brilliant point because George
Speaker 1: Brockler our guests, the great new DA out in the
Speaker 1: first time the twenty third has existed. But George, think
Speaker 1: about that, as you were saying, that means that Polus
Speaker 1: and the rest of the left went out of the
Speaker 1: way to protect people here ilegally who had already not
Speaker 1: only found their way into the system, which isn't that
Speaker 1: easy to do, but it had been convicted. So why
Speaker 1: are they so committed at that point to protecting people
Speaker 1: who've been convicted of other crimes. I mean, it really
Speaker 1: seems like that monkey jumping on the wing of the
Speaker 1: plane seen out of Twilight Zone. I mean, how do
Speaker 1: you get to that point?
Speaker 4: Well, one, I think you have to convince yourself that
Speaker 4: what's wrong with America is America and that borders are
Speaker 4: the things that separate us from the good people out there,
Speaker 4: and that we need to be changed by them. I
Speaker 4: think the other thing is, based on the conversation you
Speaker 4: had leading up to this, including the polling you are
Speaker 4: now seeing the Americans have taken a good look at
Speaker 4: what the Democrats bring to the table and they're like, wait, wait,
Speaker 4: this is not the America that we wanted. And I
Speaker 4: think in Colorado we're starting to see that too. We're
Speaker 4: not there yet. You're right, we're not there yet. But
Speaker 4: when I can stand up in this part of the
Speaker 4: metch and announce we're going to start sending thieves to jail,
Speaker 4: and people everywhere reach out to me and say, way
Speaker 4: to go, that's great. You know we have a problem
Speaker 4: because that's the norm, right like I should be the
Speaker 4: expected norm. The legal immigrant part of this thing, I
Speaker 4: think the frustrating part for people is pol us in
Speaker 4: an attempt to make the state of sanctuary state has
Speaker 4: tried to put them on equal footing with you and me,
Speaker 4: and Ryan and Kelly and every other lawful citizen here
Speaker 4: in America. And it's not just the criminal stuff that
Speaker 4: Colin points out. He's like, well, you know what, they
Speaker 4: should be able to get professional licenses too, so they
Speaker 4: can compete against citizens. They should be able to get
Speaker 4: housing assistants too, so they can compete for those limited
Speaker 4: resources with citizens. All along the way, they're trying to
Speaker 4: turn citizenship into something meaningless.
Speaker 1: What a great point George Bronckler's piece today in the Gazette. George,
Speaker 1: I would argue to extend that a step and argue
Speaker 1: that when Polus and the rest of the left go
Speaker 1: out of their way to protect people of already been
Speaker 1: convicted of committing other crimes here, at that point they're
Speaker 1: putting those people on a pedestal above citizens, because at
Speaker 1: that point they're saying, we have weighed this, and we
Speaker 1: have decided that your safety is less important than protecting
Speaker 1: these people committing other crimes.
Speaker 4: I think that's right. I think it's also a great
Speaker 4: how to describe it, hypocrisy or insanity, But They're taking
Speaker 4: people that they know have no lawful business here in
Speaker 4: the country, let alone the state of Colorado, and then
Speaker 4: creating a system where they can go on to probation
Speaker 4: that orders them to stay here in Colorado in the
Speaker 4: United States. I mean, because when you're on probak, you
Speaker 4: can't just come and go as you You shouldn't be
Speaker 4: here at all. But now we going to order you
Speaker 4: to stay here.
Speaker 1: You want to protect you to be able to do
Speaker 1: it because they don't want their potential voters leaving, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, isn't that what drives all this in the beginning,
Speaker 1: Because this modern left, this modern secular left that controls
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, to me as a whole, doesn't care
Speaker 1: about anybody except themselves. So I don't believe for a
Speaker 1: second they actually care about the folks here illegally. I
Speaker 1: think they see them as tools for their own perpetual
Speaker 1: power on the left. And so yeah, I think they
Speaker 1: don't want their potential voters leaving.
Speaker 4: I think that whatever benefit they think they were achieving,
Speaker 4: they now have to reassess that. And you know what,
Speaker 4: Polus ain't a dumb man, and he is a shrewd politician.
Speaker 4: He's not like wiser and Griswold. Dude can read the
Speaker 4: tea leaves. And so when you see him rush to
Speaker 4: the microphone to announce we're not the thing he's been
Speaker 4: helping to create us to be for the last six years,
Speaker 4: you know he senses a turn, not just in Colorado
Speaker 4: but America. He wants it. One other quick shout out
Speaker 4: by the way, today we got another sentencing. Another illegal
Speaker 4: immigrant part of a retail theft ring down here in
Speaker 4: Douglas County, just got sentenced to eight years in prison.
Speaker 4: And I wish I could speak Spanish, because I do
Speaker 4: the press release in Spanish for these folks to say,
Speaker 4: please stop coming down here to break the law. If
Speaker 4: you can't get legal with your citizenship and you can't
Speaker 4: stop committing crimes, stay north of county line.
Speaker 1: Yeah. And a great message to send everywhere across the country, right,
Speaker 1: because who other than the people in power on the
Speaker 1: left could ever argue in favor of protecting people not
Speaker 1: only here illegally, but who have committed other crimes. I mean,
Speaker 1: it's a form of insanity. And I just want to
Speaker 1: make sure everybody understands when I say, and I believe
Speaker 1: this to my core, that all of this from the
Speaker 1: left is motivated by protecting future voters. I'm not saying
Speaker 1: those people are voting illegally in our current elections, and
Speaker 1: I'm not doubting that somebody occasionally has. I'm saying that
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party sees all these folks coming in illegally,
Speaker 1: including those committing other crimes, as eventually being legal voters.
Speaker 1: And so I think the left, I think, George, the
Speaker 1: left is willing to have lots of women raped over
Speaker 1: the course of time, lots of people killed over the
Speaker 1: course of time, as the price of eventually, through political changes,
Speaker 1: acquiring millions more new voters. I think that's been their
Speaker 1: diabolical calculation. And I think America's onto that now.
Speaker 4: They are, and the great insensitivity to their approach would
Speaker 4: be their response to you, Dan would be, well, Americans rape,
Speaker 4: Americans field, Americans commit murder, as if to say, because
Speaker 4: that part is true, we can't possibly judge these illegal
Speaker 4: aliens for having broken into the country then done this.
Speaker 4: We got to keep them here like everybody else. It's nuts, it.
Speaker 1: Is nuts, But Americans are seeing that, George, can you
Speaker 1: stay for another segment or part of it? Sure? Yeah,
Speaker 1: something else I want to bounce off. George Brockler, the
Speaker 1: DA in the new twenty third year on The Dan Kapla.
Speaker 5: Show and now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Carville, we ran a presidential election. If we were playing
Speaker 1: a super Bowl, we started our seventh string quarterback. Funny
Speaker 1: he wasn't saying that at the time. Was he eight?
Speaker 1: Five to five for zero five e two five to
Speaker 1: five in the number texts DAN five, seven, seven through nine?
Speaker 1: First string for sure. George Brockler, the first DA ever
Speaker 1: in the twenty third kind of enough to join us
Speaker 1: as a piece in the Gazette today talking about Wow,
Speaker 1: the big ol' one to eighty switcheroo from Polis on
Speaker 1: sanctuary State, when George is very well documented how wait
Speaker 1: a second, Polis was responsible for all of this? So
Speaker 1: George extending the point to, okay, why so I don't
Speaker 1: think anybody's buying it to begin with. I mean, I
Speaker 1: think Polis has been exposed on this and it's not pretty.
Speaker 1: We know he's trying to get ahead of the national
Speaker 1: curve on this, but do you think that's going to
Speaker 1: work for him? And what do you make of this
Speaker 1: keating poll? As you know, not a right wing Polster
Speaker 1: the Denver Post is talking about that. That shows people
Speaker 1: in Colorado now viewing the GOP as a party of
Speaker 1: the working people. That's a dramatic pause for effect or
Speaker 1: the cell has gone bad on our friend, George. George,
Speaker 1: can you hear me?
Speaker 4: I can? I'm sorry I said that in my big
Speaker 4: fat head pressed the mute button.
Speaker 1: Sorry about that. That's okay.
Speaker 4: I was saying, you got it. It's a cause for
Speaker 4: optimism and shoots the green. But your point earlier in
Speaker 4: the hour was well made, which is, we just got
Speaker 4: to find that at least one candidate that can play
Speaker 4: off that message, win over the majority of Colorado's and
Speaker 4: get into office. And then man, I don't know, Man,
Speaker 4: I think we're a really good spot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, that's right because in my view that the
Speaker 1: secular left that controls the Democratic Party, they're not going
Speaker 1: to change, and so it's all about the GOP now
Speaker 1: getting that one breakthrough win, and then I think that
Speaker 1: just opens the floodgates to money and volunteers and hope
Speaker 1: and lots of other good things. So speaking of that,
Speaker 1: I mean, looking at this cycle right now, Bobo's hick
Speaker 1: and loopro up. Obviously in the governor's seat open. Which
Speaker 1: of those two do you think are most winnable? Is
Speaker 1: most winnable?
Speaker 4: That's a tough one. I think you've seen this too.
Speaker 4: Crow is auditioning to run for hickspot. Everybody's convinced Hick
Speaker 4: isn't going to run for reelection.
Speaker 1: So I think, whoa whoaha, See you're an insider. Is
Speaker 1: that the word on the street? Now that because, as
Speaker 1: you know, Hick said at the DNC he's running for
Speaker 1: one more term. Because if Hick's not running, do you
Speaker 1: mean now or do you mean six years from now?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 1: No, I mean now. Oh okay, that's stuff.
Speaker 4: And again that's what the kids are saying.
Speaker 1: I don't get.
Speaker 4: Texts from John, as you know, but if you look
Speaker 4: at what else is taking place within the party, Jason
Speaker 4: Kroscher thinks Hick isn't going to run, or at least
Speaker 4: he's hedging his bets, because he has amped up his
Speaker 4: profile on the m NBCs and CNNs and all that
Speaker 4: stuff in a way that you just don't see when
Speaker 4: you're running in a super safe seat the way he is.
Speaker 4: So it wouldn't shock me if he bows out.
Speaker 1: So that one.
Speaker 4: Could be an open scene I don't know that we
Speaker 4: can win that one yet, but maybe, Governor. I mean, look,
Speaker 4: Polus is going to be struck to no matter what
Speaker 4: he says about the state, people are gonna view Colorado
Speaker 4: by what Denver is. And that's just how it goes.
Speaker 1: If we ever got a state before, I think I've
Speaker 1: wont to stake off of everybody I know except you.
Speaker 1: Can we do our first? Can wet tomahawk? Bet? Okay?
Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, yeah, sure, I'll start saving money now, man.
Speaker 1: I'm telling you, truly a tomahawk right now, if you
Speaker 1: were to go to one of these steakhouses, would cost
Speaker 1: twice as much as my first car literally literally. But anyway,
Speaker 1: So the point being, George, I would bet you that
Speaker 1: Jason Crowe is completely irrelevant to any of this, and
Speaker 1: that if hick and Looper is not running, then the
Speaker 1: nomination is Polisit and that even if Hickenlooper intends to run,
Speaker 1: as he said recently does that police may very well
Speaker 1: steamroll him out of the race because where's Polist going
Speaker 1: to go? You think he's going to go back to
Speaker 1: greeting cards or flowers. Where's Polist going to go?
Speaker 4: I know? But when you have that kind of money,
Speaker 4: you can launch your own effort early. And whether it's
Speaker 4: some sort of a nonprofit that is, you know, all
Speaker 4: about redefining himself as a true libertarian or something. I
Speaker 4: can see that taking place, becoming one of the tech bros,
Speaker 4: or trying to win over that unaffiliated vote. I don't
Speaker 4: think he has to be in public office. He's not
Speaker 4: a Buddha judge. Buddha judge has to be in political
Speaker 4: office for him to be relevant because he's got nothing else.
Speaker 4: Police can do something else because he's got the money
Speaker 4: to do it. So I don't know, but I'm not
Speaker 4: telling you your logic isn't good.
Speaker 1: And the only other thing I'd suggest here is you
Speaker 1: look at all of these gazillionaires right who just are
Speaker 1: obsessed with buying their way into office and staying there.
Speaker 1: We see it all across the country, and and there's
Speaker 1: a reason for that, right it's and it's the same
Speaker 1: reason some owners of Major League Baseball teams won't sell
Speaker 1: even though people would give them five billion dollars or
Speaker 1: whatever they'd give them, because you want to be treated
Speaker 1: like a king, and you sell that baseball team for billions, Well, okay,
Speaker 1: you got all these billions, but nobody's kissing your ass.
Speaker 1: Pardon me, kids, nobody's kissing your behind. You know, I
Speaker 1: bet your Polis is one of those guys who who
Speaker 1: needs the title. He needs that. But we'll find out
Speaker 1: together because he has nowhere to go right now unless
Speaker 1: Hickenlooper is out.
Speaker 4: Let's do the thing.
Speaker 1: Let's the tomahawk. What is it?
Speaker 4: And it's a bet on what outcome for the Tomahawk.
Speaker 1: My bet is that Jason Crow doesn't even run for
Speaker 1: us Senate. That if hicken Looper's out, it's Polis and
Speaker 1: Crow doesn't run against him. That okay, if nothing else,
Speaker 1: we can have a stake. We'll have to borrow money
Speaker 1: from Ryan for it, but hey, appreciate your time.
Speaker 4: They we'll get calendar to pay.
Speaker 1: That's right, that's right, and uh, hopefully everybody sees your
Speaker 1: piece in the gazette. Well done again, my friend, Thanks
Speaker 1: for the time. Thanks take care. You're on the Dan
Speaker 1: Kapla Show.
